I am a dependable, responsible, energetic, and compassionate caregiver that has always enjoyed the role children play in my life! I truly enjoy caring for children, developing their trust and earning their respect! I have nurtured, worked, entertained, played and taught children for many years! I recognize each child as an individual with special gifts as well as individual needs. Nurturing and caring for children is a passion of mine. Since babysitting as a teenager children have always brought a measure of joy to my life and spirit! I have many interests including sports, hiking, kayaking, biking, DIY projects, cooking, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, boardgames, socializing and live music. I am a mother of two grown children, a former special education teacher, and a former disabilities coordinator, specializing in learning disabilities. I’ve taught children in grades K-8 , and I have a NC State elementary teaching license. Additionally, given Read more my professional background, I have extensive experience working with students encountering academic challenges — recommending/demonstrating specific study strategies, resources, and assistive technology designed to maximize their learning potential. If this may be a need in your family, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss the matter further with you. Now, in my pre-retirement years my responsibilities and commitments are few which allows me to have a flexible schedule and better meet the diverse schedule needs of families. It also allows me to pursue my passions. I believe performing light house work and preparing meals to be part of the job. In addition, I have an exceptional driving record if I am needed to assist with the school/sport pick up and drop off schedules. I am seeking caregiving opportunities that will be personally fulfilling and mutually beneficial. If my profile sounds like a fit for your family needs, I look forward to hearing from you.
